      Pioneer Energy Services Reports First Quarter 2016 Results


      News provided by

      Pioneer Energy Services

      SAN ANTONIO, April 29, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Pioneer Energy Services (NYSE: PES) today reported financial and operating results for the quarter ended March 31, 2016.

      Consolidated Financial Results

      Revenues for the first quarter of 2016 were $75.0 million, down 28% from revenues of $104.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2015 ("the prior quarter") and down 61% from revenues of $193.8 million in the first quarter of 2015 ("the year-earlier quarter"). The decline from the year-earlier quarter was due to reduced activity and pricing as a result of lower demand for our services due to lower oil and gas prices.

      Net loss for the first quarter of 2016 was $27.7 million, or $0.43 per share, compared with net loss of $48.3 million, or $0.75 per share, in the prior quarter and net loss of $12.0 million, or $0.19 per share, in the year-earlier quarter. The net loss for the first quarter of 2016 includes an $8.5 million valuation allowance taken against deferred tax assets primarily related to domestic and foreign net operating losses. While these net operating losses have been reserved in our financial statements, they have not expired and remain available to offset future taxable income. Excluding valuation allowance adjustments on deferred tax assets, our Adjusted Net Loss(1) for the first quarter was $19.2 million and Adjusted EPS(2) was a loss of $0.30 per share. This compares to Adjusted Net Loss of $18.0 million, or $0.28 per share, in the prior quarter and Adjusted Net Loss of $8.2 million, or $0.13 per share, for the year-earlier quarter, both of which also exclude the after-tax impact of impairment charges and loss on extinguishment of debt.

      First quarter Adjusted EBITDA(3) was $6.4 million, down from $20.0 million in the prior quarter and down from $36.8 million in the year-earlier quarter.  First quarter Adjusted EBITDA was down from the prior quarter primarily due to reduced activity in Colombia, reduced pricing and demand for our production services offerings, and lower revenues from rigs that were earning but not working.

      Operating Results

      Drilling Services Segment

      Revenue for the Drilling Services Segment was $33.2 million in the first quarter, a 35% decrease from the prior quarter and a 66% decrease from the year-earlier quarter. Drilling rig utilization was 46% for the first quarter, down from 54% in the prior quarter and 83% in the year-earlier quarter.

      Average drilling revenues per day were $25,331 in the first quarter, down from $27,730 in the prior quarter and down from $28,468 in the year-earlier quarter. Drilling Services Segment margin(4) per day(5) was $12,018 in the first quarter, down from $13,578 in the prior quarter and up from $10,448 in the year-earlier quarter. The decrease in Drilling Services Segment margin per day from the prior quarter was primarily due to the downward repricing of several rigs during the first quarter, reduced utilization in Colombia and accelerated early termination revenue that was recognized in the prior quarter resulting from a rig sale. The increase in Drilling Services Segment margin per day in the first quarter as compared to the year-earlier quarter was primarily attributable to the contribution from new rigs that were deployed late in 2015, rigs that were earning but not working and the disposal of mechanical and lower horsepower electric drilling rigs from our fleet late during 2015 which generally earned lower margins per day. Excluding the impact from early terminated rigs earning revenue but not working, margin per day in the first quarter was approximately $9,300.

      In response to the downturn in our industry, term contracts for 19 of our drilling rigs have been early terminated since late 2014, resulting in approximately $62.8 million of early termination payments. Revenues derived from these early terminations are deferred and recognized over the remainder of the original term of the drilling contracts. We recognized $49.2 million and $0.3 million of revenue for early termination payments during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. We recognized $7.1 million during the first quarter of 2016 and we will recognize the remaining $6.2 million during the second and third quarters of 2016. We have received all of the early termination payments associated with these 19 early terminations.

      We currently have 13 domestic drilling rigs earning revenues, 10 of which are under term contracts.  Of these 10, two are earning early termination revenues. Three of our eight drilling rigs in Colombia are currently under term contracts, but are on standby and not earning revenue.

      Production Services Segment

      Revenue for the Production Services Segment was $41.8 million in the first quarter, down 22% from the prior quarter and down 56% from the year-earlier quarter due to decreased activity and pricing for our services. Production Services Segment margin(4) as a percentage of revenue was 17% in the first quarter, down from 19% in the prior quarter and down from 28% in the year-earlier quarter. Production Services Segment margin was down as compared to the prior quarter due to continued weakening in activity and pricing, partially offset by actions we have taken to reduce our cost structure in response to the downturn. Well servicing average pricing was $519 per hour in the first quarter, down from $562 in the prior quarter and $619 in the year-earlier quarter. Well servicing rig utilization was 44% in the first quarter, down from 55% in the prior quarter and 79% in the year-earlier quarter. Coiled tubing utilization was 24% in the first quarter, down from 25% in the prior quarter and 33% in the year-earlier quarter.

      Comments from Our President and CEO 

      "With the continued weakness in commodity prices and dramatic curtailment of spending by oil and gas producers, we are focused on prudently managing our cash position and cost structure.  Our employee count is down approximately 65% from the peak in 2014 and general and administrative expenses in the first quarter of 2016 are down approximately 40% from the fourth quarter of 2014," said Wm. Stacy Locke, President and CEO of Pioneer Energy Services.

      "We have maintained our solid cash position and reduced net debt during this downturn.  We continue to believe that we should be able to fund most, if not all, of our capital needs in 2016 from operating cash flow and with proceeds from the sale of some SCR drilling rigs.  We continue to diligently reduce expenses throughout the company to better match market conditions. Our 2016 capital expenditure budget of $25 million, which is primarily for maintenance expenditures, is designed to keep our fleet of premium equipment highly competitive and well positioned to participate in a market upswing.

      "Other than earning not working revenues falling off, our U.S. Drilling utilization and pricing stabilized during the quarter.  We have been able to keep our two spot AC rigs working and are confident that as other rigs come off term in 2016, we will be able to renew those contracts as well.  In April, we mobilized our most recently completed new-build to begin work in the Permian.  The Colombia market remains weak, but as oil prices improve we believe the Colombia market will improve as well.

      "Our Production Services business took another leg down after oil prices dipped below $30 in February.  Activity levels declined further, especially in Well Services, and pricing was further negatively impacted.  As oil prices have recovered to the mid-$40 level in late April, we are beginning to see signs of improving demand. However, the impact of this will not be realized until late this quarter or early next quarter.  We are fortunate to be well established with a solid customer base in some of the most active basins."

      Second Quarter 2016 Guidance

      In the second quarter of 2016, drilling rig utilization is estimated to average 40% to 43%. Drilling Services Segment margin is estimated to be approximately $10,500 to $11,000 per day, which includes recognition of $4.4 million of revenues from rigs earning early termination revenue but not working. Excluding early termination revenue, we estimate Drilling Services Segment margin to be $8,300 to $8,800 per day in the second quarter, which assumes the three contracted rigs in Colombia remain idle for the remainder of the second quarter. Production Services Segment revenue in the second quarter is estimated to be down approximately 10% to 14% compared to the first quarter of 2016 reflecting an anticipated decrease in customer spending. Production Services Segment margin is estimated to be 17% to 20% of revenues in the second quarter.

      Liquidity

      Working capital at March 31, 2016 was $41.1 million, down from $45.2 million at December 31, 2015. Our cash and cash equivalents were $18.7 million, up from $14.2 million at year-end 2015.

      The increase in cash and cash equivalents during the three months ended March 31, 2016 is primarily due to $9.6 million of cash provided by operating activities, which includes early termination payments made on certain drilling contracts, and $0.5 million of proceeds from the sale of assets, partially offset by $5.5 million of cash used for purchases of property and equipment. We currently have $17.3 million in committed letters of credit and $95 million outstanding under our $200 million revolving credit facility.

      Capital Expenditures

      Cash capital expenditures in the first quarter were $5.5 million, including capitalized interest. The $25 million of estimated 2016 cash capital expenditures is primarily for routine and maintenance requirements, but also includes approximately $8 million of carryover expenditures for the new drilling rigs delivered in 2015 and certain drilling equipment that was ordered in 2014, but required a long lead time for delivery.

Our actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results, could differ materially from those we express in the following discussion as a result of a variety of factors, including general economic and business conditions and industry trends, levels and volatility of oil and gas prices, the continued demand for drilling services or production services in the geographic areas where we operate, decisions about exploration and development projects to be made by oil and gas exploration and production companies, the highly competitive nature of our business, technological advancements and trends in our industry and improvements in our competitors' equipment, the loss of one or more of our major clients or a decrease in their demand for our services, future compliance with covenants under our senior secured revolving credit facility and our senior notes, operating hazards inherent in our operations, the supply of marketable drilling rigs, well servicing rigs, coiled tubing and wireline units within the industry, the continued availability of drilling rig, well servicing rig, coiled tubing and wireline unit components, the continued availability of qualified personnel, the success or failure of our acquisition strategy, including our ability to finance acquisitions, manage growth and effectively integrate acquisitions, the political, economic, regulatory and other uncertainties encountered by our operations, and changes in, or our failure or inability to comply with, governmental regulations, including those relating to the environment. We have discussed many of these factors in more detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, including under the headings "Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" in the Introductory Note to Part I and "Risk Factors" in Item 1A. These factors are not necessarily all the important factors that could affect us. Other unpredictable or unknown factors could also have material adverse effects on actual results of matters that are the subject of our forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made and we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. We advise our shareholders that they should (1) recognize that important factors not referred to above could affect the accuracy of our forward-looking statements and (2) use caution and common sense when considering our forward-looking statements.

      This news release contains non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC Regulation G. A reconciliation of each such measure to its most directly comparable U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) financial measure, together with an explanation of why management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors, is provided in the following tables.

      _________________________________


      (1)

      Adjusted net loss represents net loss as reported adjusted to exclude impairment charges, loss on extinguishment of debt, and the related tax benefit, net of valuation allowance adjustments on deferred tax assets. We believe that adjusted net loss is a useful measure for evaluating our core operating performance, although it is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Adjusted net loss may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of net loss as reported to adjusted net loss is included in the tables to this news release.



      (2)

      Adjusted (diluted) EPS represents adjusted net loss divided by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period, including the effect of dilutive securities as applicable. We believe that adjusted (diluted) EPS is a useful measure for evaluating our core operating performance, although it is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Adjusted (diluted) EPS may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of diluted EPS as reported to adjusted (diluted) EPS is included in the tables to this news release.



      (3)

      Adjusted EBITDA represents income (loss) before interest expense, income tax (expense) benefit, depreciation and amortization, any loss on extinguishment of debt and any impairments. We use this non-GAAP measure, together with our GAAP financial metrics, to assess our financial performance and evaluate our overall progress towards meeting our long-term financial objectives. We believe that this measure is useful to investors and analysts in allowing for greater transparency of our operating performance and makes it easier to compare our results with those of other companies within our industry. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered (a) in isolation of, or as a substitute for, net income (loss), (b) as an indication of cash flows from operating activities or (c) as a measure of liquidity. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA does not represent funds available for discretionary use. Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies.  A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net loss  as reported is included in the tables to this news release.



      (4)

      Drilling Services Segment margin represents contract drilling revenues less contract drilling operating costs. Production Services Segment margin represents production services revenue less production services operating costs. We believe that Drilling Services Segment margin and Production Services Segment margin are useful measures for evaluating financial performance, although they are not measures of financial performance under GAAP. However, Drilling Services Segment margin and Production Services Segment margin are common measures of operating performance used by investors, financial analysts, rating agencies and Pioneer Energy Services Corp.'s management. Drilling Services Segment margin and Production Services Segment margin as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies.  A reconciliation of combined Drilling Services Segment margin and Production Services Segment margin to net loss as reported is included in the tables to this news release.



      (5)

      Drilling Services Segment margin per revenue day represents the Drilling Services Segment's average revenue per revenue day less average operating costs per revenue day.

      Adjusted net loss represents net loss as reported adjusted to exclude impairment charges, loss on extinguishment of debt, and the related tax benefit, net of valuation allowance adjustments on deferred tax assets. We believe that adjusted net loss is a useful measure for evaluating our core operating performance, although it is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Adjusted net loss may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of net loss as reported to adjusted net loss is included in the table above.

      Adjusted (diluted) EPS represents adjusted net loss divided by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period, including the effect of dilutive securities as applicable. We believe that adjusted (diluted) EPS is a useful measure for evaluating our core operating performance, although it is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Adjusted (diluted) EPS may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of diluted EPS as reported to adjusted (diluted) EPS is included in the table above.
